Open skies with not a hint of rain, warm breeze, puffy clouds and gin-clear visibility – a fitting ‘Welcome Back’ to Mike L on his first long haul uphill to mark the end of stoic adventures in Derriford. Good also to see Stella back on the hoof, nimbling along like a good ‘un ! So – Fox & Hounds, ‘The Points’ and a pause to admire a stunning view westwards. Then up to Great Links for coffee, some distant coastal shipping watching on the north Cornish coast and then down to the gully and Dick’s Well. Back via Arms and a nimble, steep scramble downhill to the ford and home to the F & H for a restorative pint and something tasty between two slabs of bread.’ Triffik !
